" on the front.Long Out Of Print LP with (Beatles parody) tracks that were deleted when the CD was eventually issued..Great parody cover songs - Sesame Street-stylee - of Rock and Soul ClassicsBesides Springsteen and The Beatles, they take on The Rolling Stones, Barry White and The Love Unlimited Orch, Doo-Wop greats The Monotones and more..."Me Going to Much You, Munch You, Munch You" by Cookie Monster and The Crumbs Unlimited Orchestra may be one of the finest pieces of music ever recorded. The opening bass line alone makes this all worth the price of admission ... but the following melange of wah-wah guitar, piano tinkling and, of course, that crumbly croon will have you on the floor. Certainly a song for the ages. Barry White? Isaac Hayes? Suckers. My man Cookie is where it's at. Your macaroons will be swooning before the tune hits the halfway mark."...THAT is a review by an adult -KIDS just plain lose their minds with this music.Writer/producer Christopher Cerf (from NATIONAL LAMPOON) put together this album full of seriously hip and utterly hilarious educational take-offs of well-known hits (e.g., "Born to Add" and "(I Can't No) Co-operation"), and originals. All display that wonderful sense of whimsy while simultaneously teaching kids valuable lessons about math, health, gettin' along and just-plain-growin'-up. The songs and production are good enough that parents don't tire of it when their children want to hear it 20 times in a row. A classic among the Sesame Street LPs. Too bad all children's entertainment isn't this entertaining! ...Hit the road Barney!Featuring Frank Oz (Yoda) as the voices of Bert and Cookie Monster and Jerry Nelson as The Count, among others.Killer find for SPRINGSTEEN fans, Beatles collector completists, Stones junkiesand just about anybody who enjoys a great song lovingly mutated and turned on its head -with or without kids!.Track ListingSIDE 11.
